KaKa Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 This guy is such a fraud. Been saying it for ages. Nothing player for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Yes, he goes missing for long periods in a game but somebody please tell me the midfielder with whom we are going to replace him? Gouffran? Alienheed? Tbh, if we had someone who could replace him then yes, I would also be for selling him for 10M (?) and getting a replacement. On his day, which is one in four, he is excellent. As everyone else is saying, I think there are gaping holes that need filled in central midfield, central defense before anything else happens.

Newcastle Fan Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I honestly thought he was a center midfielder, i would much rather try him there than on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 The fact that this bottler and Colback are seen as best players in midfield is worrying. I've defended him but his head and heart aren't in and he's not good enough to warrant tolerating it. The irony of sending players away for being bad attitudes when it's clearly endemic of the squad. This club deserves all its getting. As long as we're in the prem they'll just see their actions vindicated year on year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Another two goals created. Might well be a sulky wantaway dick that doesn't try a lot of the time (and if he wasn't, he wouldn't play for us in the first place) but when he's on it he's bloody hard to stop. Love watching him maraud forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 He was doubled (or more) up on a lot today so didn't really get much chance to run with the ball but still managed to be involved in both the goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 If this prick always played with that amount of conviction he'd actually get his dream move to Oil Rich FC's bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 He's a twat. Just kept his place in the side so he can do fuck all for another half a dozen games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Good ball in particular for the winner. He doesn't get those balls right very often. Just a question as to when the next game is that he'll turn up for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Good on the break away as he always is. Apart from that he put in the cross for Gini & did little else. Does my head in how unfussed he seems half the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Thought he was one of our poorer players today, but he set up both goals so he's earnt his wage. By complete coincidence, the Sky cameras were in town. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I don't think anyone should have any complaints today, both him and Wijnaldum are expected to run a lot of miles due to the lack of drive from central midfield. They both put in a shift defensively as well which was the key to getting the win today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I thought he was still shit today, loads of sloppy passes, piss poor attempts at taking on his man and over hit balls. Yes he worked hard, ran about and got involved, but if he had any actual technical quality allied to that kind of work rate and running he would actually be immense. As such he isn't and never will be because he's shit on the ball most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 The first goal is so simple, just put in an early ball with whip and it'll usually cause problems. Second was great. Still thought he was really patchy overall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As such he isn't and never will be because he's shit on the ball most of the time. I think that's harsh, him and Gini are expected to work both ends of the pitch due to our lack of movement in central midfield. He doesn't get a lot of room to manoeuvre but still quite often gets a way and put in a decent ball. His number of assists should be telling. They can't all be flukes.

durhamunigeordie Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 And that we will get a couple more decent performances from him in the next few weeks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 What an enigma this man is. First half he was awful. Looked half asleep. Second half came alive, things started clicking, and he fucking dropped Moreno like a little child on that counter - Moussa at his best. Guy kills me, he has the potential to be brilliant with that type of pace and strength... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John P Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 What an enigma this man is. First half he was awful. Looked half asleep. Second half came alive, things started clicking, and he f***ing dropped Moreno like a little child on that counter - Moussa at his best. Guy kills me, he has the potential to be brilliant with that type of pace and strength... Ultimately that's why we were able to buy him and why we still have him. If bigger clubs do their scouting properly they'll realise how massively inconsistent he is and stay well away, no matter how much he spouts off in the media. If he was consistent he would be one of the better midfielders in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 His style is inconsistent by nature, he plays quickly and doesn't quite have the technique needed to make it 100% reliable. If he did he would be amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 TBH when he's arsed - he can force his way to the edge of the box and his final pull back/ball is always pretty decent. He's stronger or faster than his fullback 9 times outta 10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 We just need to replace him with a real right-winger and get rid of this toxic, entitled fuck. He's one of the few real 'bad apples' we've had at the club, far worse than HBA in my opinion. At least HBA never chose when to turn up and when not to.
